Summer Interlude (Criterion Collection)

This was one of director Ingmar Bergman's favorites among his own films. The story concerns a ballerina who discovers the diary of a past lover, now-deceased. Through reading the journal, it provides her with a much-needed emotional catharsis, as she revisits their idyllic summer together and shatters a wall of bitterness built up over the years. Maj-Britt Nilsson and Alf Kjellin star. AKA: "Illicit Interlude," "Summerplay." 96 min. Standard; Soundtrack: Swedish PCM mono; Subtitles: English. In Swedish with English subtitles.
